Gentle Moments


This happened to me on the weekend. I've never had a bird land on me before, but it was a great experience. The little bird was so gentle and it honestly touched my heart by how it could trust something much bigger than itself. It was a truely spectacular moment that has stuck with me. It has forsure inspired me to try and connect with nature more in the future.

A Mysterious Meal

                  Where do I start?   Where does anyone start when talking about something completely insane?   As much as I have no idea what is happening to me, I know what happened to bring me to this point.   I suppose it was my hobby that got me in this situation; how could something I enjoy so much leave me in such a desperate state?                Food is my number one interest and has been for a large part of my life.   The combination of flavours and textures are endless; just when you think you’ve tried everything, something new starts to trend and your world is opened up even further.   One bite can take you on an exotic journey filled with unfamiliar spices and aromas, while another can send you back in time to a comforting moment from your childhood. I love to cook and experiment with flavour, I have ever since I took a cooking class at my old high school.   All those years ago I thought that having basic cooking skills would simply be a useful skill to have, plus, the

Eyes in The Field

There are some moments in your life that make you question everything that has brought you to a specific moment, and I believe I just experienced one. I’m not sure what I would describe my experience as; like I know what I saw, but I don’t know what would have caused that. What I do know is that I experienced a deep, chilling, primal fear that gripped my spine harder than anything else. What I know is that for the last four hours, ever since it happened, I haven’t been able to stop shaking. I’m more scared than I ever have been in my life; much more terrified than I ever was as a child. The darkness that I once welcomed as a calming reprise at the end of my day now initiated a fight-or-flight response that wouldn’t leave me. I wanted to crawl into a hole and bury myself to hide from the world, but instead I find myself in front of my laptop typing this out while I take pull off of a previously full bottle of tequila. My head is getting a little heavy and numb, so I’ll have to typ

The Figure in the Frame: ch. 4 mississauga

  4. mississauga Something strange happened to me today. It happened when I was walking home from work. I say "work" but what I really mean is one of my side-gigs, a contract job sketching little girls at a birthday party. Her name was Hilary—or was it, Haley? Doesn't matter. What matters is I was in a foul mood. A culmination of weeks, no, months, feeling unfulfilled. I had been supplementing work for nearly sixteen months now that my contract at The Tribune was terminated. I was their resident cartoonist (a word I've come to hate these past few years), pumping out silly five-strip comics for what remained of the paper's readership. Like the major outlets, the Mississauga Tribune migrated to an online platform that utilized all the latest social media outlets. Work came and went depending on the amount of clicks they garnered in a year. I was lucky to nab my position after graduating from the animation program at Sheridan College, with a solid portfolio that &qu
